BACKGROUND

The invention relates to compounds and compositions useful for treating disorders related to Kit.

The enzyme Kit (also called CD117) is a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) expressed on a wide variety of cell types. The Kit molecule contains a long extracellular domain, a transmembrane segment, and an intracellular portion. The ligand for Kit is stem cell factor (SCF), whose binding to the extracellular domain of Kit induces receptor dimerization and activation of downstream signaling pathways. Kit mutations generally occur in the DNA encoding the juxtumembrane domain (exon 11). They also occur, with less frequency, in exons 7, 8, 9, 13, 14, 17, and 18. Mutations make Kit function independent of activation by SCF, leading to a high cell division rate and possibly genomic instability. Mutant Kit has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several disorders and conditions including including systemic mastocytosis, GIST (gastrointestinal stromal tumors), AML (acute myeloid leukemia), melanoma, and seminoma. As such, there is a need for therapeutic agents that inhibit Kit, and especially agents that inhibit mutant Kit.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention provides compounds and compositions for treating or preventing conditions such as mastocytosis by modulating the activity of Kit, such compounds having the structural formula I:

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or a tautomer thereof, wherein each of the variables are described herein.

Any of the compounds disclosed herein may be used to treat any of the diseases disclosed herein.

As used herein, the definition of each expression, e.g., alkyl, m, n, etc., when it occurs more than once in any structure, is intended to be independent of its definition elsewhere in the same structure.

Certain compounds of the present invention may exist in particular geometric or stereoisomeric forms. The present invention contemplates all such compounds, including cis- and trans-isomers, R- and S-enantiomers, diastereomers, (D)-isomers, (L)-isomers, the racemic mixtures thereof, and other mixtures thereof, as falling within the scope of the invention. Additional asymmetric carbon atoms may be present in a substituent such as an alkyl group. All such isomers, as well as mixtures thereof, are intended to be included in this invention.

If, for instance, a particular enantiomer of compound of the present invention is desired, it may be prepared by asymmetric synthesis, or by derivation with a chiral auxiliary, where the resulting diastereomeric mixture is separated and the auxiliary group cleaved to provide the pure desired enantiomers. Alternatively, where the molecule contains a basic functional group, such as amino, or an acidic functional group, such as carboxyl, diastereomeric salts are formed with an appropriate optically-active acid or base, followed by resolution of the diastereomers thus formed by fractional crystallization or chromatographic means well known in the art, and subsequent recovery of the pure enantiomers.

Unless otherwise indicated, when a disclosed compound is named or depicted by a structure without specifying the stereochemistry and has one or more chiral centers, it is understood to represent all possible stereoisomers of the compound, as well as enantiomeric mixtures thereof.

The “enantiomeric excess” or “% enantiomeric excess” of a composition can be calculated using the equation shown below. In the example shown below a composition contains 90% of one enantiomer, e.g., the S enantiomer, and 10% of the other enantiomer, i.e., the R enantiomer. ee=(90−10)/100=80%.

Thus, a composition containing 90% of one enantiomer and 10% of the other enantiomer is said to have an enantiomeric excess of 80%.

The compounds or compositions described herein may contain an enantiomeric excess of at least 50%, 75%, 90%, 95%, or 99% of one form of the compound, e.g., the S-enantiomer. In other words such compounds or compositions contain an enantiomeric excess of the S enantiomer over the R enantiomer.

The compounds described herein may also contain unnatural proportions of atomic isotopes at one or more of the atoms that constitute such compounds. For example, the compounds may be radiolabeled with radioactive isotopes, such as for example deuterium (²H), tritium (³H), carbon-13 (¹³C), or carbon-14 (¹⁴C). All isotopic variations of the compounds disclosed herein, whether radioactive or not, are intended to be encompassed within the scope of the present invention. In addition, all tautomeric forms of the compounds described herein are intended to be within the scope of the invention.

The compound can be useful as the free base or as a salt. Representative salts include the hydrobromide, hydrochloride, sulfate, bisulfate, phosphate, nitrate, acetate, valerate, oleate, palmitate, stearate, laurate, benzoate, lactate, phosphate, tosylate, citrate, maleate, fumarate, succinate, tartrate, napthylate, mesylate, glucoheptonate, lactobionate, and laurylsulphonate salts and the like. (See, for example, Berge et al. (1977) “Pharmaceutical Salts”, J. Pharm. Sci. 66:1-19.)

Certain compounds disclosed herein can exist in unsolvated forms as well as solvated forms, including hydrated forms. In general, the solvated forms are equivalent to unsolvated forms and are encompassed within the scope of the present invention. Certain compounds disclosed herein may exist in multiple crystalline or amorphous forms. In general, all physical forms are equivalent for the uses contemplated by the present invention and are intended to be within the scope of the present invention.

As used herein, the term “patient” refers to organisms to be treated by the methods of the present invention. Such organisms preferably include, but are not limited to, mammals (e.g., murines, simians, equines, bovines, porcines, canines, felines, and the like), and most preferably includes humans.

As used herein, the term “effective amount” refers to the amount of a compound (e.g., a compound of the present invention) sufficient to effect beneficial or desired results. An effective amount can be administered in one or more administrations, applications or dosages and is not intended to be limited to a particular formulation or administration route. As used herein, the term “treating” includes any effect, e.g., lessening, reducing, modulating, ameliorating or eliminating, that results in the improvement of the condition, disease, disorder, and the like, or ameliorating a symptom thereof.

Indications

The compounds described herein can be useful for treating conditions associated with aberrant Kit activity. Activating mutations in Kit are found in multiple indications, including systemic mastocytosis, GIST (gastrointestinal stromal tumors), AML (acute myeloid leukemia), melanoma, and seminoma.

Mastocytosis refers to a group of disorders characterized by excessive mast cell accumulation in one tissue, or in multiple tissues. Mastocytosis is subdivided into two groups of disorders: (1) cutaneous mastocytosis (CM) describes forms that are limited to the skin; and (2) systemic mastocytosis (SM) describes forms in which mast cells infiltrate extracutaneous organs, with or without skin involvement. SM is further subdivided into four forms: indolent (ISM), smoldering (SSM), aggressive (ASM), SM with associated hemotologic non-mast cell lineage disease (SM-AHNMD), and mast cell leukemia (MCL).

Diagnosis of systemic mastocytosis is based on histological and cytological study of bone marrow showing infiltration by mast cells of frequently atypical morphology, which frequently abnormally express non-mast cell markers (CD25 and/or CD2). An elevated level of serum tryptase above 20 ng/mL or the presence of an activating mutation of Kit can confirm the diagnosis. The extent of the proliferation of mast cells can be analyzed using medical imaging (radiography, ultrasound, CT scanning).

Activating mutations at the D816 position are found in the vast majority of mastocytosis cases, with the most common mutations being D816V and D816H, and D816Y. The D816V mutation is found in the activation loop of the kinase domain, and leads to constitutive activation.

The compounds described herein may also be useful to treat GIST. Complete surgical resection remains the principal treatment of choice for patients with a primary GIST. Surgery is effective in approximately 50% of patients with GIST. Of the remaining patients, tumor recurrence is frequent. Primary treatment with a Kit inhibitor such as imatinib has also been shown to be sufficient for initial treatment. However, resistance to imatinib occurs within months through somatic mutation. These secondary imatinib resistant mutations are most frequently located on exon 11, 13, 14, 17 or 18. Sunitinib is the standard of care second line treatment for most imatinib resistant tumors and is effective for those containing mutations in exons 11, 13 and 14. However, secondary kit mutations in exons 17 and 18 are resistant to sunitinib treatment and furthermore, tumors containing tertiary resistance mutations in exon 17 and 18 emerge several months after sunitinib treatment. Regorafenib has shown promising results in a phase 3 clinical trial of imatinib, sunitinib resistant GISTs with activity against several exon 17 and 18 mutations, with the exception of the D816 mutant which remains refractory to all treatments. Regorafenib has been approved for 3rd line GIST treatment.

The compounds described herein may also be useful in treating AML. Some AML patients harbor Kit mutations as well, with the majority of these mutations at the D816 position.

In addition, mutations in Kit have been linked to Ewing's sarcoma, DLBCL (diffuse large B cell lymphoma), dysgerminoma, MDS (myelodysplastic syndrome), NKTCL (nasal NK/T-cell lymphoma), and CMML (chronic myelomonocytic leukemia).

The amber solid was dried under high vacuum to yield the desired product (1R,5S)-8-(5-benzylpyrimidin-2-yl)-3,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octane, assumed to be the di-HCl salt. Since the tare on the vial was lost, the yield was assumed to be quantitative (103 mg).

To a stirred 0° C. solution of tert-butyl 2-(hydroxymethyl)morpholine-4-carboxylate (54 mg, 0.25 mmol) and triethylamine (33 mg, 0.33 mmol) in dichloromethane (2 mL) was added methanesulfonyl chloride (29 mg, 0.25 mmol). The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and was stirred overnight for a total of 22 hours. The mixture was diluted with dichloromethane (3 mL) and washed with aqueous 2N sodium hydroxide solution (3 mL). The organic layers was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, concentrated down, and dried under vacuum to yield the desired product tert-butyl 2-(((methylsulfonyl)oxy)methyl)morpholine-4-carboxylate in excess yield. The yield was assumed to be quantitative (74 mg) and was used as is in the next Example.

Example 10

Step 1: A mixture of (1R,5S)-8-(5-benzylpyrimidin-2-yl)-3,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octane di-HCl salt (70 mg, 0.2 mmol), commercially available 4-chloro-6-hydroxy-7-methoxyquinazoline (38 mg, 0.18 mmol) and triethylamine (109 mg, 1.08 mmol) in 2-propanol (1.5 mL) was stirred in a sealed tube at 120° C. for 1.5 hours. The reaction mixture was then cooled to room temperature. An off-white solid was isolated by filtration and dried to yield desired product 4-((1R,5S)-8-(5-benzylpyrimidin-2-yl)-3,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-yl)-7-methoxyquinazolin-6-ol in slight excess yield (theoretical yield: 82 mg). The crude product probably contained some triethylamine hydrochloride salt and was used as is for the next step. LCMS (M+1)=455.2.

Step 2: A mixture of 4-((1R,5S)-8-(5-benzylpyrimidin-2-yl)-3,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-yl)-7-methoxyquinazolin-6-ol (46 mg, <0.10 mmol), tert-butyl 2-(((methylsulfonyl)oxy)methyl)morpholine-4-carboxylate (˜30 mg, 0.10 mmol), and cesium carbonate (131 mg, 0.40 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (0.3 mL), was stirred in a sealed tube at 85° C. for 4 hours. The reaction mixture was treated with water (˜7 mL). A beige solid was isolated by filtration, dried, and purified by silica gel preparative TLC (elution with 10% methanol/dichloromethane) to yield the desired product tert-butyl 2-(((4-((1R,5S)-8-(5-benzylpyrimidin-2-yl)-3,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-yl)-7-methoxyquinazolin-6-yl)oxy)methyl)morpholine-4-carboxylate as a clear film (44.2 mg, 67%).

Example 11

A mixture of 5-benzyl-2-(piperazin-1-yl)pyrimidine di-HCl salt (45 mg, 1.39 mmol), commercially available 4-chloro-6-hydroxy-7-methoxyquinazoline (266 mg, 1.26 mmol) and triethylamine (511 mg, 5.05 mmol) in 2-propanol (4 mL) was stirred in a sealed tube at 120° C. for 6 hours. The reaction mixture was then cooled to room temperature. A beige solid was isolated by filtration and dried to yield desired product 4-(4-(5-benzylpyrimidin-2-yl)piperazin-1-yl)-7-methoxyquinazolin-6-ol in excess yield (683 mg versus theoretical yield of 541 mg). The crude product probably contained some triethylamine hydrochloride salt and was used as is for the next step.

Example 12

A mixture of (1R,5S)-8-(5-benzylpyrimidin-2-yl)-3,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octane di-HCl salt (31 mg, 0.09 mmol), commercially available 4-chloro-6,7-dimethoxyquinazoline (18 mg, 0.08 mmol) and triethylamine (49 mg, 0.48 mmol) in 2-propanol (0.7 mL) was stirred in a sealed tube at 120° C. for 16 hours. The reaction mixture was then cooled to room temperature. A light-beige solid was isolated by filtration, washed with a small amount of water, and dried to yield 4-((1R,5S)-8-(5-Benzylpyrimidin-2-yl)-3,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-yl)-6,7-dimethoxyquinazoline (26 mg, 69% yield).

Example 13

A solution of tert-butyl 2-((((4-((1R,5S)-8-(5-benzylpyrimidin-2-yl)-3,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-yl)-7-methoxyquinazolin-6-yl)oxy)methyl)morpholine-4-carboxylate (44.2 mg, 0.068 mmol) in trifluoroacetic acid (1 mL) and dichloromethane (2 mL) was stirred 40 hours at room temperature. The excess solvents were evaporated. The residue was dissolved into dichloromethane (3 mL) and washed with aqueous 2N sodium hydroxide (3 mL). The aqueous layer was extracted with fresh dichloromethane (4×3 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, concentrated down, and dried to yield 2-(((4-((1R,5S)-8-(5-Benzylpyrimidin-2-yl)-3,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-yl)-7-methoxyquinazolin-6-yl)oxy)methyl)morpholine as a cloudy film (33.6 mg, 90% yield).

Example 14

Biochemical Activity of Compounds

In order to assess the activity of chemical compounds against the relevant kinase of interest, the Caliper LifeSciences electrophoretic mobility shift technology platform is used. Fluorescently labeled substrate peptide is incubated in the presence of kinase and ATP so that a reflective proportion of the peptide is phosphorylated. At the end of the reaction, the mix of phosphorylated (product) and non-phosphorylated (substrate) peptides are passed through the microfluidic system of the Caliper EZ Reader 2, under an applied potential difference. The presence of the phosphate group on the product peptide provides a difference in mass and charge between those of the substrate peptide, resulting in a separation of the substrate and product pools in the sample. As the pools pass a LEDS within the instrument, these pools are detected and resolved as separate peaks. The ratio between these peaks therefore reflects the activity of the chemical matter at that concentration in that well, under those conditions.

Kit wild type assay at Km: In each well of a 384-well plate, 0.2 ng/ul final (2 nM) of wild type Kit (Carna Bioscience 08-156) was incubated in a total of 12.5 ul of buffer (100 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 0.015% Brij 35, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT) with 1 uM Srctide (5-FAM-GEEPLYWSFPAKKK-NH2)(SEQ ID NO: 1)) and 400 uM ATP at 25 C for 90 minutes in the presence or absence of a dosed concentration series of compound (1% DMSO final concentration). The reaction was stopped by the addition of 70 ul of Stop buffer (100 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 0.015% Brij 35, 35 mM EDTA and 0.2% of Coating Reagent 3 (Caliper Lifesciences)). The plate was then read on a Caliper EZReader 2 (protocol settings: −1.9 psi, upstream voltage −700, downstream voltage −3000, post sample sip 35s). Data was normalized to 0% and 100% inhibition controls and the IC50 or EC50 calculated using a 4-parameter fit using GraphPad Prism.

Kit D816V assay at Km: In each well of a 384-well plate, 0.04 ng/ul (0.5 nM) of D816V Kit (Carna Bioscience 08-156) was incubated in a total of 12.5 ul of buffer (100 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 0.015% Brij 35, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT) with 1 uM Srctide (5-FAM-GEEPLYWSFPAKKK-NH2) (SEQ ID NO: 1)) and 15 uM ATP at 25 C for 90 minutes in the presence or absence of a dosed concentration series of compound (1% DMSO final concentration). The reaction was stopped by the addition of 70 ul of Stop buffer (100 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 0.015% Brij 35, 35 mM EDTA and 0.2% of Coating Reagent 3 (Caliper Lifesciences)). The plate was then read on a Caliper EZReader 2 (protocol settings: −1.9 psi, upstream voltage −700, downstream voltage −3000, post sample sip 35s).
